All Plantation Houses: Tennessee

The subset of this subcategory's Plantation Houses group whose own recorded location places the plantation house in Tennessee, an inland cotton and tobacco plantation state whose surviving houses are numerous enough in this atlas to warrant their own state-level group rather than sharing a single undivided list with every other state's plantation houses. Grouping by state keeps a reader oriented to a specific regional plantation economy and architectural tradition, distinct from the coastal and river-delta plantation economies of the Gulf and Atlantic states grouped separately here.
